Method

Cut watermelon and haloumi into 1cm thick slices with a similar shape.

2.

Heat a non-stick frying pan on medium heat. Toss haloumi slices in oil, then fry cheese for 1 minute each side until golden brown.

3.

In a small bowl, mix dressing ingredients. Taste and adjust to your liking.

4.

Arrange the haloumi and watermelon in alternating layers across a plate. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and top off with a squeeze of lemon juice.

Tips:

1.

Haloumi is a semi-hard, salty, and scrumptious cheese, which is fantastic grilled or fried. It is made from a mixture of goat's and sheep's milk. We call it the squeaky cheese because it makes a squeak when you cut it.
